The New York Jets' loss to the Minnesota Vikings confirmed one thing that everyone probably knew going into this season: Mike White likely won't be the long-term answer for the Jets at quarterback.
MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA - DECEMBER 04: Mike White #5 of the New York Jets reacts during the fourth quarter against the Minnesota Vikings at U.S. Bank Stadium on December 04, 2022 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The New York Jets’ loss to the Minnesota Vikings confirmed one thing that everyone probably knew going into this season: Mike White likely won’t be the long-term answer for the Jets at quarterback.
He’s definitely settled in as a nice backup option for this team and should be able to find work for a long time, but he’s not a starter — and that’s fine! Two things can be true at this current time: White is not the franchise quarterback for the Jets, but he’s still the best option for them right now., they needed to stabilize their season and not throw away their first potential playoff berth in over a decade. That still looks to be a good decision.
This is a team that has all the pieces in place to both win now and sustain it for the next few years at the very minimum. No need to waste precious games figuring out if Zach Wilson is that guy — he’s very clearly not if White is a significant upgrade over him. In a way, this makes the present situation a little easier to focus on. There's really no pressure for either of these guys to prove they're the guy that the Jets have desperately been searching for. All this season is about now is stacking wins before evolving into their final form next year. If
